Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been on several (zoloft, lexapro, etc...) SSRI s but could not tolerate the side effects. I also have high anxiety levels so I ve been told Wellbutrin is not an option. Are there any antidepressants that help with depression and anxiety that does not make one gain weight? Thank you.
Prod episode is good option. For initial anxiety, low dose Clonazepam is beneficial. This does not increase the weight also cognitive behavioral therapy is very useful with trained therapist.
Hope this clarifies your concern. Thank you for the query.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Gayathri, Psychiatrist
